You are of course referring to Point Magu Naval Air Station and Air Warfare Center , right?

I'm only asking because my Father-in-Law was based there on his last station before he retired from the Marine Corps as a full Colonel (it was weird going to the PX and seeing his picture on the wall with the Navy brass of the base).

As far as I know, there are NO air force personnel there whatsoever. Would you care to make a clarification? :hmm:

Only someone who has no idea about the U.S. military would go a Navy base and then say they were at an Air Force base. :rolleyes:

very few people would care about such a detail imho :dodgy:

[speedracer120]

Very few being civilians with no sense of the finer details to which each branch of the military like to harp on each other about.

does it bug u? :confused:

I was wondering why the Air Force was flying F14's :D

[eSDee]

Airforce != Navy Hang10. Cool pics tho ;)

[speedracer120]

It doesn't bug me, cause I'm just a civvie. But I find it funny watching people from the military always go on and on about their particular branch and how all the others just can't compare.
